[en] Some possibilities of the 'cold' nuclear fusion have been examined. The juxtaposition of the publicated data and the presence of the contradictions between them have been presented. The variant of the experiment has been proposed. 6 refs.; 1 fig.; 1 tab

[en] On the assumption, that the scheme of particle generation in e^-p collisions through virtual photon interaction may be extended to collisions of relativistic nuclei, the cross-sections of pion generation are evaluated. A virtual photon arises due to coherent action of the whole charge of the nucleus, its protons only transporting this charge. The virtual photon interacts with one of the nucleons of the target nucleus or of the incident nucleus. For the coherent process of electrogeneration with nuclei colliding the scale invariance is supposed to be valid (confirmed in experiments on pion generation by deuterons). Considered is collision of nuclei with Z₁=Z₂=20 and energy of 20 GeV/nucleon. The enrgy of π⁺-meson in the centre-of-mass system virtual photon-proton is Esup(*)=4.95 GeV. The total cross-section of pion electrogeneration is sigmasub(tot)=3μ bar, the differential cross-section (in laboratory system) is dsigma/dΩsub(π)=3.7 μ bar/steradian

[en] The accelerator-breeding process is grounded on the following theses: a decrease of the beam power due to increasing K_ef of reactor (K≠1) by start enriching its fuel with ²³⁵U, the use of light nuclei for decreasing beam intensity and the consumption of energy for the generation of one neutron, the use of liquid fuel, for example U+Bi, in the reactor, the application of liquid fuel as a beam target and for cooling. When the fuel is circulated in the primary reactor counter it is possible to evacuate the products of chain reaction. The reactor's compaign will be over a long period of time without fuel replacement. A scheme of the breeder's reactor is presented for the generation of 800 MWt beam of ⁴He ions - 15 MWt. The fuel in the reactor is 120 tons of uranium including 2.4 tons of ²³⁵U and bismuth at 20 atomic per sent of uranium. 20 refs.; 2 figs.; 2 tabs

[en] The results of experiments on neutron distribution at the spontaneous fission of ²⁸⁸U and ²⁵²Cf are analysed. It is shown that these distributions are described by the superposition of binomial distributions for neutrons emitted from fission fragments. It is shown that the value of average neutron number for unknown spontaneous emitter is within 3 <= anti ν <= 5, which points to ²⁵²Cf. It is shown that modelling of neutron distributions over multiplicity by means of binomial or superposition of these two distributions gives more unambiguous results as compared to the statistical regularization method applied earlier for spontaneous fission of fermium isotopes

[en] The models of relativistic nuclei interactions at central collisions are discussed for the purpose of running experiments at accelerators. The data of these models are compared with the results of investigations with cosmic rays

[en] Data on the structure and evolution of the Earth, the Moon and asteroids are compared. The time of gravitational planet condensation from primary gas-dust cloud, the flux of heat, the time of crust formation, the density and content of elements are considered. It is shown that the energy of accretions and U, Th and ⁴⁰K radioactive decay is insufficient to explain the evolution, in particular, of the Moon and asteroids. Data on the lifetime of superheavy elements are presented. An estimate of their possible content in terrestrial, lunar and meteorite ores is made. It is shown that the evolution of planets and their energy balance can be explained using the radioactive decay of superheavy elements

[en] In the present paper we introduce a compilation of works devoted to the search of superheavy elements in nature. Theoretical predictions on the basis of astrophysics and the models of nuclear structure are discussed. Experimental indications of the possibility of existence of superheavy elements are presented. The trials of their observations in earth samples, meteorites and in cosmic rays are described. Methods of enrichment and detection of superheavy elements in natural samples are discussed which may allow one to detect superheavy elements at initial concentration < 10^-20 g/g

[en] Prospects of electronuclear method of atomic energy production and radioactive waste transformation are discussed. The work is based on data obtained at the JINR synchrophasotron, which are devoted to neutron generation by light nuclei in massive lead block. 20 refs.; 5 figs.; 3 tabs

[en] The paper concerning the results of inelastic collisions of 1.8 and 0.9 GeV per nucleon ⁴⁰Ar with copper is discussed. The authors Dersch and Beckman explained their experiment results on the basis of anomalons of lifetime r ∼ 2x10^-10 s and/or ''inconsistency with the known nuclear physics''. In the present search it is shown that such conclusions are untenable, and the data obtained by the authors are explained by the known physics regularities

[en] The total disintegration is considered of Ag and Pb nuclei and ⁴He, ¹²C nuclei With a momentum of 4.5 GeV/c per nucleon. It is shown that nucleons are mainly emitted, and there is no residual nUcleus the mass of which is comparable to that of the primary nucleus. The probability of total nucleus disintegration is considered as a function of projectile energy and the mass. The multiplicity, energy and emission angle of particles are considerred as well. It is shown that the density of nuclear matter in the overlap zone of colliding nuclei exceeds the usual one by a factor of approximately 4. A comparison is made with interaction models. A conclusion is drawn of the collective interaction mechanism (perhaps, of the shock wave type) of particle ejection from the target nucleus at the first stage of interaction and of explosive decay of the residual nucleus at the next one
